12 Drum Fly Dressings

This was one of the hardest days to find fitting flies, why didn’t they just stick to birds the whole way through? lol Luckily I tracked down this incredible collection of Drum Fly Recipes created by Sandy Irvine–Lord Alexander Irvine, Laird of Drum Castle and Drum Estate in the 1930’s. Thanks to Ronn Lucas for resurrecting the Salmon Flyer and the bakers dozen Drum fly recipes.

If someone ties up one or any of these flies, send a pic my way and I’ll put it up on the blog. Well, there you have it, my fly tyer’s 12 days of Christmas. I hope that you enjoyed it, as it was interesting coming up with the ideas. If you have any ideas for next year, shoot me a message.
